Researchers at Boise State University developed a breakthrough e-tattoo that integrates energy harvesting, energy storage, and biometric sensing into a single platform. The e-tattoo uses MXene-coated fibers to harness energy from human motion and store it for low-power applications.
Researchers at Boise State University have developed a technique to use graphene foam to stimulate cells into forming cartilage. The study found that applying direct electrical stimulation strengthens the mechanical properties of cartilage and improves cell growth, paving the way for new treatments for osteoarthritis.
A new technique discovered by Boise State University researchers can create novel lithium-ion battery materials with exceptional Li storage and fast cycling. The process starts from an amorphous material, like niobium oxide, which is cycled with lithium to induce a transformation to a crystalline material.
Researchers at Boise State University developed a new water purification system that uses Ti3C2Tx MXene to remove ammonia from simulated wastewater. The system achieves a 100 times improvement in deionization capacity compared to activated carbon-based electrode systems, reducing energy consumption and pollutant ions.
